Nashua 357SA Spray Adhesive

Product Description

Nashua 357SA Spray Adhesive is designed for temporary and permanent bonding. Used to bond fabric, fiberglass insulation, plastic films, felt, rubber, leather, cork, paper, cardboard, urethane foam, foil to metal, wood to wood and a variety of other substrates. Low VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) content and can contribute toward satisfying EQ Credit 4.1 under LEED and meets SCAQMD Rule 1168 and Green Seal GS-36 requirements. Also meets FDA requirements for indirect food packaging when used according to 21 CFR 175.105. It has a lace spray pattern, a solvent odor, 15 second to several hour bonding time, 1 year shelf life, and its volume is 19.6 fluid ounces (net weight is 14 ounces). It contains no methylene chloride and is extremely flammable.

Features & Benefits

Fast skin, fast grab, low soak in spray adhesive.

Formulated to bond polyethylene to concrete block, wood and many other hard-to-bond pieces.

May be used to bond carpet and is ideal for label applications.

May be used for either permanent or temporary bonds.

Good UV, moisture, and oxidation resistance.

Application Instructions

For permanent bonds spray both surfaces and then allow 1-2 minutes for tack to develop and then bond with firm pressure. For temporary bonds apply a light, even coat to one surface and then allow tack to develop and then bond with firm pressure.

NOTE: Federal regulations prohibit the shipment of restricted products (aerosol cans, flammable items, etc.) by air so please only choose UPS Ground/Standard as your shipping method if including this product in your order.

Offers the widest range of application flexibility available. Exhibits excellent processing performance whether manually or automatically applied. Has superior tensile strength, adhesion properties and holding force which ensures consistent, reliable seals. Hot melt adhesive will bond faster to a surface which is referred to as quick-grab or quick-stick. It typically has higher tack (will feel stickier to the touch), but is also softer. It has lower heat resistance, shear resistance, and sometimes UV resistance than an acrylic adhesive. NOTE: it is called hot melt because the adhesive is applied hot by the manufacturer and then hardens as it cools (you do not need to apply heat to the tape yourself).

natural rubber

Properties are similar to that of hot melt rubber, but natural rubber often holds where other adhesives won't (recycled fibers, dust, cold, heat and heavy loads). It provides good overall adhesion and moisture resistance.

acrylic

Offer excellent performance, especially for applications in temperatures less than 40°F and greater then 120°F. It provides excellent clarity, has high shear strength, is usually more permanent/durable even when exposed to moisture, and it ages well over extended periods in fluorescent and sunlight. Since it remains clear for the life of the application and does not yellow over time it is ideal for applications such as sealing white cartons. While it has good initial adhesion it does take 24-48 hours to cure and to achieve its maximum bond strength (has gradual adhesion buildup). Another difference between hot melt rubber and acrylic adhesive is if you fold tape over making the two adhesive sides touch the acrylic adhesive will remain attached to the carrier (e.g. paper, film) while a hot melt adhesive will stick to itself and pull off of the carrier. It is the best choice for clarity, UV resistance and aging characteristics.

silicone

Is great for extreme temperature applications since silicone adhesive can work in continuous operating temperatures from -100°F to 500°F. They also exhibit good chemical resistance, retain electrical properties, and remove cleanly with little or no residue.

zinc oxide

Zinc oxide based adhesive formula is a skin-friendly adhesive which is commonly used on sports medicine tapes.
